    Don't know if this is the right place to post this...

    Anyway I've got an Alienware M17x R4 with a 7970M, and my FPS in EVERYTHING, whether it be a game or benchmark, stays at 45. It's pretty annoying when I know a fair few of the games I play can be pushed up to 60 on this yet everything is being capped.

    I do have V-Sync disabled, even forced off in Catalyst. I've tried multiple iterations of Catalyst too and none of them change it.

    Anyone else have crap like this going on? :/
